A member asked:
Please explain if it is possible to have surgery if only one ball/testicule dropped?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Undescended testis: Surgery is recommended for undescended testicles to prevent testicular cancer or at least decrease the increased risk. Please contact a urologist or general surgeon. The surgery is called orchipexy.
